Criminal Investigation Team 1: The Next Suspect

"Hey, Xiao Li is here!" It was an old and enthusiastic voice.

Lin Mo heard the sound and looked for it, only to see a gray-haired old man who was over half a century old sitting on a small bench washing cauliflower. He also looked at him with curious eyes at this moment, but the eyes were not malicious.

"Second Master, this is Lin Mo," Qiao Li said to the old man, "Is there any food for me today?"

"Second Master." Lin Mo called out respectfully, and the old man who was called Second Master, who was squatting on the ground washing vegetables, said "hmm" and then began to scold Qiao Li: "You boy, how many I haven't come to see me for a long time, just come, I don't know how to bring me two packs of cigarettes... Oops, it hurts... Ah Qi, be gentle..." Before the second master finished speaking, he was caught by a movement The fierce, skilled-looking middle-aged woman grabbed her ears.

"You still dare to smoke... Is it too long or something, just drown in the toilet..." The middle-aged woman cursed fiercely, but the movements of her hands became more and more light.

"Xiaoli! You haven't been here for a long time... This old man and I miss you..." The middle-aged woman known as Ah Qi seemed to have changed her face, and her voice could be soft and soft. dead.

"Who would have thought of this bastard..." Second Master cursed, but he didn't slow down washing the vegetables with his hands.

"You feel like going to the refrigerator to take out the ribs to thaw, and stew them later, I think Xiaoli has lost weight..." Ah Qi viciously instructed the second master to work, but the second master didn't complain, and said nothing Went to the back room.

Just when Lin Mo was feeling the speed with which Ah Qi changed his face, she suddenly spoke to herself with interested eyes: "Who is this?"

Qiao Li smiled and said, "Aunt Qi, this is Lin Mo, our captain."

"Is there still such a handsome man in the police? Tsk tsk... hey, now the boys are more handsome than the other. The guy on the poster in the girl's room is thin-skinned and tender, and he is also handsome. I asked Who is she, she told me her name is Qing, she is a big star."

Lin Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, thinking that that boy Lin Qing had harmed another young girl, he followed Qiao Li and shouted, "Aunt Qi."

"Hey," Aunt Qi smiled softly, "Come in and sit down, I'm still cooking chicken! The dishes will be ready in a while! I'll mix two cold dishes for you first!"

"It's okay, there's no rush," Qiao Li said with a smile while holding her hand, "No rush, I just came to see you, there are so many cases these days, I haven't been here for a long time, I miss you."

"Hey, don't tire yourself out, your body is the most important thing," Aunt Qi looked at Qiao Li as if she were her own child, "You still have me and your second master, we can wait for you to come and see us when we are old !"

Qiao Li smiled, didn't say anything, and dragged Lin Mo into the room to sit down.

After Seventh Aunt mixed two cold dishes for them, she went to work in the kitchen with Second Master.Qiao Li stood up, took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator next to him, and gave Lin Mo a can.

"You haven't eaten all day, so you can't just eat cold." Lin Mo's attitude was very tough, and he directly snatched the beer from Qiao Li's hand and put it away.

Seeing Lin Mo's actions, Qiao Li couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing Qiao Lile, Lin Mo raised the corners of his mouth, and blew into his ear, "Do you think your husband looks like a domineering president?"

Qiao Li was even more joyful when he heard this sentence, and finally his whole face turned red with a smile, but Lin Mo was embarrassed by his laughter instead.

After laughing enough, Qiao Li picked up a peanut with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, "I just think that this kind of life is pretty good."

Lin Moyu looked at him with affection that had never been shown in his eyes, and put the peeled shrimps in front of him, but he didn't eat any of them.

Qiao Li looked at the neatly arranged shrimps, was a little dazed, and then said: "This kind of life is not bad, Second Master and Seventh Aunt are in good health, we are very busy, the case is difficult to solve, and we stay up late from time to time. It's really good to complain and come over for a meal again."

Seeing how seriously he said it, Lin Mo knew that he was thinking about the past again, so he smiled and said, "What are you thinking! Who doesn't have childhood shadows! Let me tell you that I have more childhood shadows... "

"Lin Mo—" Qiao Li interrupted the man before he finished speaking, "Is it possible to live a lifetime like this?"

Lin Mo was stunned for two seconds, and then hurriedly grabbed his hand after realizing it: "Are you... are you... proposing to me?"

After saying this, Qiao Li was also stunned. Seeing Aunt Qi brought up the dishes, she coughed twice, implying that he should stop talking.

"You say what you want, it will be ready soon! I'll serve you food!"

"Let me serve it! Aunt Qi." Qiao Li was about to stand up after finishing speaking.

"Don't, the kitchen is so small, don't come here to make trouble, quickly try the food, does it suit your taste?" Aunt Qi went into the kitchen again after finishing speaking.

Seeing Aunt Qi enter the kitchen, Lin Mo squeezed Qiao Li's waist, "Go on! Didn't you propose just now?"

Qiao Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Old rascal, stay calm here! Who proposed?"

"If you don't ask, just leave it to me," Lin Mo said solemnly, "Mr. Qiao, I want to spend the rest of my life with you on a day like this. I want to eat with you every day, whether it's the food I cook or Aunt Qi and the others. Whether it’s takeaway or just a bowl of noodles in clear soup, as long as I’m sitting next to you, I feel that whatever I eat is delicious.”

"You just want to have dinner with me!" Qiao Li looked at him amusedly, "In the end, you won't become two big eaters!"

"Of course it's not just eating!" Lin Mo continued, "I also want to kiss you, your eyes, your cheeks, your mouth, I want to lift your clothes, kiss your collarbone, and then Kissing your collarbone all the way down, wanting to see you blushing and biting your lips, wanting to scream but not daring to scream, and finally ruthlessly—"

"Stop!" Lin Mo's serious and deep voice described such a restricted scene, which made Qiao Li's ears turn red. Thinking of the next words that would be even more unpleasant, he immediately stopped him.

"This is the home of Second Master and Seventh Aunt," Qiao Li glared at him angrily, "You don't care about the occasion?"

Lin Mo smiled like an idiot: "Then you mean, just go home?"

"Yo, you two have such a good relationship!" Aunt Qi smiled and teased the two of them holding a yellow casserole with a lid on it. , those who didn’t know thought you two were brothers!”

Qiao Li flattered me on the surface, "Team Lin took good care of me. To a certain extent, he is considered a brother." It's a pity that this brother only wants to pressure me to do bad things.

"Come, come! You two have worked hard on the case, and I'll make up for it at Aunt Qi's place today!" Aunt Qi lifted the lid of the casserole, and a strong smell of chicken soup wafted into her nostrils, and she saw a whole hen stewed in the casserole. There was a thin layer of butter floating on top, and a few red dates floating on top.

The two of them who hadn't eaten all day stared straight at the pot of chicken soup.

Aunt Qi was pleased by the expressions of the two, she took out two bowls with a smile, weighed them and put them out to dry, "I'll drink it later, the heat of this chicken soup is covered by the oil, so it looks hot, you guys Drinking it now will burn your tongue into big bubbles."

"Wait! There will be other dishes in a while!" Aunt Qi smiled and walked into the kitchen to get busy.

Seeing Lin Mo waiting for the chicken soup to cool down, Qiao Li said with a smile, "Second Master and Seventh Aunt, they are very good at cooking. I have eaten here for several years, and whenever I have free time, I will go here and stay here. More like home than my house."

"You came here often when you were in college?" Lin Mo finally turned his attention away from the chicken soup.

"En. The second master and the seventh aunt have a child. The first time I saw the child was ten years old. At that time, I was hit by a motorcycle. I saw her. I found that she was seriously injured. First aid was given to her, and then she was called to the hospital."

"I didn't see them until the hospital notified the family members. But the second master was so fierce at that time, I was ready to be blackmailed by him," Qiao Li picked out a chicken leg from the casserole and gave it to Lin Mo , "Then he ran up to me aggressively, grabbed my hand fiercely, and said thank you to me with a fierce expression."

Lin Mo laughed out loud. He had just peeled a plate of shrimp for Qiao Li, and was about to act on the chicken legs, "Is this the so-called tenderness of a tough man? Hahaha... What happened next? You two are already cooked?"

"Yes. Later, Xiaomeng was their child. After she recovered from her illness, she often clinged to me. I took time to visit her from time to time. The two elders stayed in the ward to take care of her. We became acquainted after chatting."

"Don't look at Second Master as he is now. He is cowardly and fearful. He used to mess around in the past. Back then, he was desperate to fight people for the territory." Qiao Li deliberately lowered his voice while speaking, "Listen seven My aunt said he has many scars on his body, one of which is near the heart."

Lin Mo raised his eyebrows, "It's another gangster. As expected, the fights are more ruthless than the police. This society still needs the legal system to ensure the safety of the people."

"Can we stop this whole thing?" Qiao Li gave him a blank look, and continued, "Later, the second master really got out of face and became a local snake at that time, uh...Is it not accurate to describe it as a local snake? I have never been in contact with the underworld, so I just said it, you just need to understand what it means... When the second master was in his 40s and was in his prime, he met his childhood sweetheart Qi Yi, and his silent heart came alive again. "

"Second Master had a crush on Seventh Aunt before, but his family was poor and he was uneducated. He felt that he was not good enough for her, so he went out to wander around. After this wandering, there was endless emptiness. At that time, he just wanted to start a family and be with him. People who live with their own people, and leave a son and a half daughter behind, this life is not in vain.”

"I mean, Doctor Qiao! Why don't you be a forensic doctor or a psychiatrist, and instead become a storyteller. With your level, you will be popular in a few years!" Lin Mo sandwiched chicken wings for him. tease him.

Qiao Li bit the wing he handed out, and said vaguely: "I'm talking to you..."

Lin Mo smiled, and continued to follow his words: "Then according to you, the second master has washed his hands in Jinpan for many years now, and turned back for the beauty and prodigal son!"

Qiao Li almost choked to death when he saw Lin Mo succinctly express a series of storytelling words he said.He picked up the cup next to him and swallowed a few sips of water, then changed the subject in an instant: "This chicken soup should be cold, you have seen too many cases, it is mental health, you should drink more chicken soup!"

"You dissected quite a few corpses." Lin Mo picked up one of the bowls, "For our mental health, let's make this bowl of chicken soup together, let's clink our glasses!"

The two big men who were about to run to three turned into childish ghosts at this time, gulping down the chicken soup, not knowing whether their hearts had been baptized or not.

Seventh Aunt served several special dishes one after another, and the meal was enjoyable.

After drinking and eating, the two hosts said that they would not charge Qiao Li's money, saying that he would also collect the things he often bought for himself. No more stuffing.

Before leaving, Qiao Li stuffed a pack of cigarettes into Second Master's pocket while Seventh Aunt wasn't paying attention, "Don't smoke! This stuff is no good!"

"It's no good, you still stuff me, you kid wants to hurt me!"

"Then you give it back to me, I can't hurt you." Qiao Li pretended to take back the pack of cigarettes.

The second master ran away in a flash, he didn't look like a man over fifty years old at all.

"How do I see how familiar that pack of cigarettes is!" Lin Mo turned his head and asked him.

"Hey, I took it from your pocket... This is called borrowing flowers to offer Buddha."
